[PATCH v3 0/2] KVM: arm64: ptdump: Shadow ptdump fixes

From: Wei-Lin Chang

Hi,

This is v3 of fixing the sleep-in-atomic problem of the shadow ptdump.
The approach taken this time is simply creating a file for each nested
mmu.

The ptdump files are created alongside the nested mmus in
kvm_vcpu_init_nested(), in a sleepable context, and removed when the VM
is destroyed (kvm_destroy_vm_debugfs(), before the nested mmus are freed
in kvm_destroy_nested()). This allows us to store the kvm_s2_mmu pointers
in the ptdump code, after Marc's nested mmu lifecycle fixes [1].

For the shadow ptdump, for valid nested mmus the first line will show
the nested context's VTTBR and VTCR values, and whether s2 is enabled or
not. The ptdump then follows.

The first patch fixes mmu->pgt accesses after the VM MMU teardown in
ptdump.c, the second patch switches from per nested context ptdumps to
per nested mmu ptdumps.

Tested with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING, CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP, and
CONFIG_KASAN.

Series based on kvmarm/fixes.

* Changes from v2 [2]:

- Changed from creating a file that contains all nested mmus to
creating one file for each nested mmu.

Thanks!
